These include a tribute to our protectors, several well-known speakers, indoor/outdoor venue, bands, several dance competitions, booths, educational information, local female law enforcement on hand to support, Our space is a historic train station with plenty of room for celebration. At 5:00 we will be summoned to the outdoor fountains where several African Dance Tribes will entice us with their unique style of drumming.
